powder coating axle?
i want to get my english axle powder coated but i'm worried bout shot blasting bits getting in the casing.
a idea i thought of is cutting a piece of mdf to the size of the diff and bolting it ont the axle using cardboard as a gasket? and doing the same at
either end?
would it work? or shall i just hammerite it?

Speak to the guys you'll get to do the powder coating - it probably won't be their first axle.
They should be able to advise you on what to do

I did all this on my first build made everything look fantastic
cleaned all the back end bits and it makes such a mess
absolutely pointless as you cant see it when the cars done
wont waste time doing it again
just make your brakes look nice etc
